Wall Street Journal: Fable III Isn’t Legendary

Fable III is a game that promises much, but never fully delivers. Peter Molyneux’s Lionhead Studios has a game with all the elements needed to succeed – stunning graphics, a deep storyline, sympathetic characters, a hip steampunk feel and smooth gameplay. Somehow, though, the game fails to meld all those elements together.

I wonder why people want to say they shouldn't write reviews when the same thing comes to the game they hate on the other platform. Just as long as they actually played the game and give it a proper review then there should be nothing wrong with it.

In some manners I can believe that the game fails to deliver in areas. Don't take this wrongly, but I've just heard many fans say although the game is great, Molyneux just continues to overhype and under deliver in area's he promises to go all out on. But lets be honest, this is Wall Street Journal. Their reviews are far from credible and as far as I've seen, the game looks sick, and it's getting 8-9's across the board.

It's getting pretty decent scores from actual gaming sites. I looked over at Meta, and it's at 82 right now. Not bad at all. While Fable 2 is sitting higher at 89, I also remember that game catching a lot of flak around launch, and I enjoyed it immensely.

the game is very enjoyable but its boarderline insane in other areas. I love rpgs and so far this one does not dissapoint. The 360 has sure had a great lineup of rpgs this gen I just wish more people would support them. The ps3 also has a decent amount but they seem to more supportted which is a problem for the 360 and its shooter box mentality.
